Why take Delta with us?

The atmosphere
There are trainers who do their job and trainers who do their job well. Our trainers do their job perfectly well because they have their trainees’ needs at the heart and are sincerely interested in their progress. This year we’re inviting Robert Fletcher (UK) and Iulia Maria Lehner (Romania) to tutor on our courses. We’re very excited to be welcoming them in Kiev - they’re experienced, professional and fun to work with. We know you will enjoy the time with them.

A shorter course
We know how busy you are, so this year we’re launching a short course. The course will last for 6 weeks and cover all of Module 2. Some schools run 8-week courses which include preparation for modules 1 and 3 as well. We decided to focus on Module 2 only and do it well.

Focus on one thing at a time
Some centres offer Blended courses (e.g. Module 2 together with preparation for Module 1). We care for our customers, we know they are all different and have different needs. This is why we’ve decided that this summer we’ll be offering Delta Module 2 only. If you’ve taken Module 1 or Module 3, you won’t be paying for what you’ve done already. If you haven’t, we’ll be happy to offer you support with preparation for those modules closer to the deadlines.
